"Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior"
2005
Directed by Prachya Pinkaew

Tony Jaa's breakout performance as Ting, a religious warrior on a vigilante mission, earned near-unanimous acclaim from critics, who declared the actor's rigorous, athletic star-turn equal to performances by Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, and other martial arts icons. The film follows Ting as he travels to Bangkok to recover a priceless statue from a ruthless warlord, but much of the plot is ancillary to spectacularly choreographed action sequences that pummel the senses. "Fans of action movies will find much to appreciate in this symphony of flying limbs, breaking bones and elaborately staged chases and confrontations" (A.O. Scott, New York Times). Thai with English subtitles. 105 minutes.
